Yes, our org migrated about 100k accounts last year. I wasn't directly involved in the project but they used Microsoft's migration solution and it appeared to be an uneventful process. The only lingering issue is that O365 does not offer a 1:1 feature set replacement for Box, so some of the more complex Box workflow and integrations were challenging to fully replicate in the O365 environment.

Microsoft has a readymade solution for this as part of migration support.

For data lakehouse platform utilization, our use cases vary between 1. respond to smart applications' data enquiries and 2. AI/ML data exploration. The first use case type mandates low latency responses, while the second consumes computational resources for long periods.  Should we create two different lakehouse platforms to serve both use case types?

I work for a company with geographically dispersed operations, and we are facing significant challenges with our data collection and reporting processes for HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment). We collect a variety of environmental data (e.g., water quality indexes, equipment training compliance) from multiple sites. Our current data collection application has critical governance gaps. When an indicator shows a deviation, we struggle to trace its origin because the system lacks a clear audit trail. We cannot confidently verify who entered the data or when, which undermines the reliability of our HSE indicators. Furthermore, our data collection forms are rigid. Any request to add or modify fields requires our development team, leading to significant delays and hindering our ability to adapt to new requirements quickly. Questions: 1. How do you ensure robust data governance for HSE indicators? What tools or best practices have you found effective? 2. Have you successfully empowered your business or HSE teams to create and modify data collection forms without developer dependency? If so, what low-code/no-code platforms or solutions do you recommend?
